RENEW
|
The next step is to RENEW.
Once we encounter Jesus, we want to know Him deeply, love Him dearly, and be renewed by His grace and truth. We are renewed by the spiritual disciplines of prayer, worship, and study. Our parish offers you a wide array of opportunities to be renewed in your relationship with God.
